The second season of The Diplomat is about to hit Netflix on Oct. 31, but Netflix already has some news about a potential third season. The political thriller was a hit the second it debuted on Netflix, and the streaming service seems to like what it’s bringing them because they just announced that it will be returning for a third season.
No plot details have been released about the upcoming third season, which makes sense since we don’t even know exactly what happens in season 2 just yet.
Following the news that the show would be continuing into season 3, series creator Debora Cahn shared her reaction: “After an amazing summer shooting in the U.K., we brought London home to NY. Best of both worlds — filming in Brooklyn. We love doing this. We’re so excited to get to keep going.”
The series stars Keri Russell as a career diplomat who finds herself thrust into the spotlight after she’s considered to be a potential replacement for the current vice president. As she manages her ambassadorship in the U.K., she’s also deciding whether she wants to stay married to a fellow diplomat who has had a more high-profile career to date.
Season 2 of The Diplomat left things in a state of upheaval following a cliffhanger car-bombing, and the details of that car-bombing have yet to be fully resolved. However season 2 plays out, fans of the series can rest assured that any cliffhangers at the end of that season will be addressed in season 3, whenever we get that.
